Seriously, I know we live in a PC world but there's not a woman on this planet who I could talk football with.

And I consider myself a casual fan

When I watch football with my wife she just wants to talk about AUBIE the dancing tiger

This seems like a bit of an exaggeration. I've met some girls who know their sports.

I've heard a lot of dudes that are way dumber about football than some chicks I've talked to.

Ask a mom with sons who play at the HS level or above. A lot of them are very knowedgable. Not all, but a lot.

The frick is this?


You're wrong.

Not only that, the lady didn't even talk that much about the game.

"Hey Funchess is playing hard and focused on his routes and being physical. Do you like seeing that and take pride in it?"


That's all she asked

I agree. It is funny to hear a women talk about routes. Not funny haha, funny strange.

Short out, short in, slant, hook, deep in, post, drag, fly.. have any of yall ever heard a woman comment on a WRs route tree and footwork during a route break


The 2nd part of Op is just ridiculous. If a woman wants to talk football , he can dumb it down to have a conversation.

I don't think it is true. I'm sure there are women who study football and can understand routes, at least to the same degree as non-football playing male sportswriters, even if your wife isn't one of them. But even if is true, it's still a dick thing to say. Just because a person is fat, doesn't mean I should laugh at them and call them a fatass.

You married the wrong woman. My wife can tell me most of the major sports records!

She turns 40 next weekend and for her birthday she wants to go to the ALCS.

What makes a female who is a serious fan any different than a guy who never played at a high level and is a serious fan? There are major college head coaches who never played football. What makes them more qualified than a female reporter?

It was a really dumb comment by Cam. I can see how somebody could say that without thinking, especially if they were heated. Glad to see he apologized. We all make mistakes and say dumb stuff from time to time, so now that he's acknowledged he was wrong and manned up to apologize we should move on.

That's because Aubie is fricking hilarious and awesome. Best mascot in CFB. Theres a reason why Aubie has won more mascot national championships than any other mascot. Go to an Auburn game in person and Aubie can be damn near as entertaining as the game at times. Everybody loves Aubie, even Bama fans who come to our games admit it by the end. You clearly married above your league in at least the intelligence department.

That's not a woman thing, that's a you thing, fwiw.
